I am not a fan of WBD because anything that is important should be done all year round but....here is a quick World Book Day Treasure Hunt I whipped up...slides, posters and slips if you too need to do something. Under reading heading on this page engteacherabroad.com/miscellaneou...

Revision time. Keep it simple. Tomorrow, we're revising form - something ppls don't always make clear. We'll revise 4 Trans writing forms + key features. Ppls will then get piece of writing (AI generated) + be asked to present in diff forms before gallery show to consider diffs.

1 thing I like as IB bring out updated guides is the explicit nature in which they're showing the inter-connectedness of the different facets of the prog. They want us to deliver a fully integrated approach (which is tough) but are now really taking time + care to establish what this really means.

Planning next week's Y7 lessons. I love this Mythology unit...the reading part anyway. Key concept: identity and related concept: narrative. Currently learning about Indigenous beliefs, the trickster character, and character archetypes.

I love the Edexcel IG course. And after so many yrs, know how I would land it. This year, I'm going to enjoy planning and sharing again. Collaboration gives me energy and there isn't enough of it in schools so lets work with the wider community.

For anyone teaching Edexcel English IGCSE Lang/Lit, I've just set up a new Facebook page for sharing. There is an IG one but combo of Edexcel + CIE so would love to be more focused on our fab course! Will take a while to build but where there's a will, there's a way. www.facebook.com/share/g/1EKN...

Fabulous talk from our history teacher @mroscott on narrative. Lots of lovely IB language too😉 Presenting is such a fantastic way to reflect on what you are doing and Oli did this superbly.
